Italian football journalist Rudy Galetti claims that Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker will listen to the proposal from Saudi Pro League
Rudy Galetti revealed that Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker will listen to the Saudi Pro League’s proposal despite his preference to stay. Alisson is one of the best goalkeepers in the world and is already a Liverpool legend among the Reds fans.
The Brazil international has won every major trophy since joining the club from AS Roma in 2018 under Jurgen Klopp. The 31-year-old is also one of the prominent locker room leaders for the Reds and commands the respect of his peers.
Liverpool’s number two Caoimhin Kelleher is already planning to depart the club to earn first-team football as a regular. Kelleher played a crucial role for Liverpool when Alisson suffered an injury last season, helping in the Carabao Cup victory.
The 25-year-old has reached the peak year of his career and understands that dethroning Alisson at Liverpool is very unrealistic. Alisson has a key role to play as Arne Slot succeeds Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool in the head coach role.
Liverpool cannot afford to lose more key personnel with Klopp and several staff members already departing from Anfield last month. Joel Matip and Thiago Alcantara have also left Liverpool as free agents, leaving only a few long-serving players at the club.
According to Galetti (via X), Alisson remains a prime target for the Saudi Pro League during the summer transfer window. The Brazilian will listen to the proposal which is “a monstrous offer” even though he prefers to stay at Liverpool.

For Liverpool, Alisson is indispensable at any price and they have shown their tenacity to keep their important players. Saudi Pro League clubs targeted Mohamed Salah last season with Liverpool rejecting a £150 million offer, showcasing that no price is enough.
Liverpool needs to maintain a similar stance for Alisson as he is important for Liverpool heading into a new era. The 31-year-old fits perfectly into Slot’s plan and no goalkeepers are capable of succeeding him right now.
